Wusthof Gourmet Bread Knife

4.6

Best reliable serrated blade for home bakers on a budget.

This serrated blade is the ultimate fix for crushing delicate loaves, using a concave edge to glide through crusts without tearing the crumb. It’s lightweight and incredibly nimble, though you sacrifice the heft of a forged knife for a stamped construction that requires a bit more care during cleanup.
